Navigraph's FlightSim Community Survey 2018 Results
corn322 replied to billeinstein's topic in Chit-Chat
I'm curious about the drink trolley 4% of respondents claim to have in their simulator setup. Do people role play as a steward while on autopilot to their destination? -
At 3:59 in the video: A pair of 2,000lb bombs from an F-16. One hits the ground and detonates before the other, but the shock wave detonates the second bomb. The second bomb looks like it shoots something out, and causes a secondary explosion on the ground. What's going on here?
-
I read it like this: "If you go low, the bandit can create max angles with lift vector on the horizon."

Interesting stuff. While searching around for more info, I ran across this page: http://www.topedge.com/panels/aircraft/sites/kraft/fuel.htm, which describes the fuel system of a Mig-21US. A few minor differences from what foxbat posted, like tank order and lack of wing drop tanks. I wish the system diagram was easier to read. I want to know which fuel tanks are in what group. Is my image correct? And where is tank no.1?

So far I've only been practicing with 100kg bombs at 800kph. Results are promising, but I definitely need to work on my flying skills. Do you know of any dive bombing charts?
-
The SAU stabilization mode doesn't work either.

My door also aren't hydraulically powered, which I assumed ( ) actuate the doors with the same motions and forces each time. Driving with a helmet on just makes everything quieter.
-
The doors on my car don't randomly make different sounds when I close them. They sound the same each time, because they are the same each time. What changes about the Mig-21 doors to make them sound different?
-
I don't know what it takes to reproduce, but I've noticed two different sounds for the landing gear. Sometimes when I pull the gear up, I get a solid "clunk, clunk, clunk" sound, other times I get a light "clop, clop, clop." Has anyone else heard this?
-
@ VZ - I think it was all altitudes; more apparent when up high. @ Maintsay - Ah, I see. There's a lot of things about ED we don't understand.

The gauge #61 in the picture? This gauge works for me. My only issue is the blue/yellow/red ring seems to be upside down. I assume it would behave like the EGT, RPM, oil pressure, and hydraulic pressure gauges: Blue: good Yellow: caution Red: bad

Does the Persian Gulf look like a baseball field to anyone else? What are these stripes in the sand?

Has the GUI really changed that much between 95, 98, XP, 7, 8, and 10? I've got a desktop, taskbar, start menu, things open in resizable windows... The only issue I've had is settings being moved around into different menus, some menus being hidden, things like this. At least in 10 you can right click on the start button to get to Device Manager, Disk Management, etc. As for NVidia software, get the driver package from geforce.com, and install what you want. I personally install only the graphics driver and physX software. I have no need for GeForce Experience, 3d drivers, HD audio drivers.

None of this describes the way the Mig-21 behaves for me.

Angle of attack indicator reading discrepancy?
corn322 replied to Aluminum Donkey's topic in MiG-21Bis
I don't have to imagine much, 100kph = 62mph.:smilewink: -

Ah, glad this came out. Can't wait to watch it.

Compare to these images of Mig-21 cockpits: As for reading them? I haven't spent much time learning Russian, so no, I can't "read" them. Do I use English cockpit? Yes. Even still, I don't read the text, I remember what position that indicator is for. I.E., I don't need to read the text on your screenshot to know the cone is out, AFB is on, nozzle is open, and no center drop tank attached. Try twisting the knob to put the lights into night mode.

Where you here for the upgrade from DCS 1.2 to 1.5? IIRC, it brought performance improvements for everyone.

It seems like I can load any EDM file from DCS world in modelviewer except the MIG-21 cockpit. It displays nothing, then quits. I wanna say 4 or 5 version of DCS World ago I could view the cockpit. Viewing the modelviewer log file, I find these lines: 2018-08-12 22:45:30.166 ERROR VFS: Can't mount 'c:\program files\eagle dynamics\dcs world\mods\aircraft\mig-21bis\shapes\/textures' to '/textures/'. 2018-08-12 22:45:30.271 ERROR MODELVIEWER: file c:\program files\eagle dynamics\dcs world\mods\aircraft\mig-21bis\shapes\mig-21_cp.edm not found Anyone have an idea?

Best monitors for flight sim in DCS
corn322 replied to Raven1606688515's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
How do you have the monitor set up? Do you have any of the features enabled? I've heard that fast TN monitors have poor color reproduction. -
This was my concern.
